About Thunder Bay, ON

Thunder Bay sits where Highway 17, the Trans-Canada, meets Highway 61 heading down to Minnesota, so most visitors arrive from either the Sault Ste. Marie side or straight up from Duluth. Locals bouncing over to Oliver Paipoonge, Neebing, or Shuniah are on short, quick drives, nothing like the long stretch east toward Nipigon and Terrace Bay. The airport is only 7 km from downtown, handy for anyone flying in. EV drivers should top up before hitting the highway, since chargers get scarce heading either direction out of town. Keep an eye out for the Sleeping Giant formation across the water, it really does look like a giant lying down.
